Haruhi Mahjong

Here's the original text for this part (pages 255-256):

[...]。ルールを曲解したハルヒは自分で勝手な役を考案し、『二色絶一門』『チャンタモドキ』『イーシャンテン金縛り』などの謎の役で次々と俺たちからアガり続けた。まあ笑えたから許してやる。ノーレートだったしさ。

「ロン！たぶん一万点くらい！」

「涼宮さん、それ役満ですよ」

Translation:

[...]. Haruhi distorted the rules and created yaku to suit herself, racking up win after win with puzzling combinations like "Nishoku Zetsu Ichimon," "Chantamodoki," "Stuck at Iishanten" and so on. Well, it made me laugh, so I let it pass. And we weren't playing for money, anyway.

"Ron! That's about ten thousand points!"

"Suzumiya-san, that has an eight thousand point limit."

The 3 Haruhi Terms:

『二色絶一門』- NI'SHOKU'ZETSU'ICHI'MON - Two Colors Stop One Gate??

『チャンタモドキ』 - Chantamodoki - ????

『イーシャンテン金縛り』- Iishanten KANASHIBAri - Stuck at Iishanten??

Normal Mahjong Terms:

役 - YAKU - Special combinations/patterns. At least one yaku is needed before a player can declare mahjong.

イーシャンテン - Iishanten - Declared by player when he/she is 2 tiles away from Ron.

ロン - Ron - Declared by winner when the winning tile is another player's discarded tile, as opposed to "Tsumo", when the winning tile is drawn by the winning player. For Tsumo all the other players have to pay the winner. For Ron, the player who discarded the winning tile is the only one who has to pay.

役満 - YAKU'MAN - Full yaku or "maximum hand." Upon winning, the hand value is calculated. If the hand value is greater than 2000, then instead of using the "actual" hand value, the hand value is reduced to a limit of 2000 points. This limit is multiplied by 4 for yakuman.

ノーレート - No rate - I assume this means they're not playing for money, but a clarification is needed.
